The attendees of the second in a series of soldering classes built an LCD Backpack, available from Dangerous Prototypes. The LCD screens work over USB or serial connections and can be used for multiple different things. Keep an eye out for our other upcoming classes!

Food: We will have a taco/nacho bar setup with a variety of fillings, condiments and options available for a $15 donation (MidsouthMakers Members $10) which includes soda. BYOB (obviously 21+) Feel free to bring your own food/drinks/snacks.

Want to learn how to solder? Midsouth Makers will be hosting a soldering workshop on April 5th @ 2PM. The class will be $25 and you will be walking with a TV-B-GONE. Class size is limited to 15, so sign up today! RSVP on Meetup.com

Q/A: What do I need to bring?
You should bring Soldering Iron, Solder, Multimeter, Flush Cutters, Solder Sucker/Solder Wick, and helping hands. If you don’t have these Items, no biggie, the makers have a few sets to borrow for the class.

So what is this TV-B-GONE thing?
Its an over powered remote capable of turning off many different TV’s from over 150ft away with one push of a button. It is a great kit for beginners, large parts, and low part count. Curriculum can be found here. (http://learn.adafruit.com/tv-b-gone-kit/overview)
